Controversy over symbols and racism .

[wacki]

There are people at 2+2 argueing that anyone using this symbol:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cactuar


is a racist.

Also, there are several people that are claiming I don't know what I'm talking about when I say the Rebel Flag isn't about slavery.

Apparently they are offended by images like this:



Because that stands for slavery and is racist!

I bet all those people in dollywood are racist too!

This woman has to be evil!



Apparently the state flags of Georgia, Mississippi, Arkansas, Florida, and Alabama are also racist and was designed specifically to opress black people.

However, state legislature records from that time only talks about state rights, heritage, etc. That doesn't matter though, I guess it's still racist to some.

I wonder if this guy is a racist:




and this guy is a racist



This guy is holding a sign attacking the NAACP!!! HE MUST BE RACIST!!!

(sign says "NAACP LEAVE MY MISSISSIPPI STATE FLAG ALONE")




I bet this is some real racist booty here!



and here:






So what do you say OOT? Is anyone that posts a swastika cactus or rebel flag racist?
